Bill Summary

Proposing and submitting to the voters an amendment to the Constitution of the State of South Dakota, providing for wagering on sporting events and to revise provisions regarding certain municipal proceeds of gaming revenues.

AI Summary

This Joint Resolution proposes an amendment to the South Dakota Constitution that, if approved by voters, would allow the Legislature to authorize wagering on sporting events. It also revises existing provisions concerning how certain gaming revenues collected by municipalities are used. Specifically, it clarifies that net proceeds from authorized games of chance in Deadwood, including roulette, keno, craps, limited card games, slot machines, and now sporting event wagering, must be dedicated to the historic restoration and preservation of that city. This amendment aims to expand gaming options and redirect associated municipal revenues for a specific historical purpose.
